Feb 7, 2011
how one professionaly would solve the security and administration for the multiple webadmins, but firstly I give some general information.I spent 2 days searching and there are alot of good guides but I dont see my specific questions answered, not so I can understand them atleast.I have Ubuntu 10.10 64bit server edition installed.I am educating myself and am new to linux but use vmware and have installed Gentoo multiple times and a copy of Ubuntu server. This server is going to be setup on the 64-bit 10.10 Ubuntu virtual machine.

I've installed Fedora 12 Desktop in order to develop a simple website, which is going to use some PHP.
I will need:code editor to write html/css/php local apache server running php browser how to get me up and running in no time with least extra configurations.
Bonus: I'm going to run all this in a virtual box on my company computer. I'd love to be able to stay undercover with this, so if one of you can tell me how to configure the apache server not to be too visible to the company network/domain, that'd be excellent.

I have Apache up and running and have a few virtual sites enabled. All these sites belong to the same user and group and the directory root for each site is in /home/{same-user}/www/{site-name}/htdocs/
I use Samba to connect from Windows to these directories and by default, files and directories are saved as the {same-user} and {same-group}. My question is, would it cause a problem if I changed the user and group in the virtual server directives in /etc/apache2/sites-available/site.conf files, giving apache permission to write to these files and directories. In the past I have changed the user and group to www-data (the default) but this seems inefficient an cumbersome compared to what I intend to do.
I use the server mostly for development, although at times I have a small site or two available to the public. Before I do this I want to be sure I'm not leaving a gaping security hole by changing these things. If this is all wrong, what is the standard way of running virtual hosts from apache and what is the standard document root for virtual sites?

I read that since httpd 2.2.12 (I run 2.2.15), it is now possible to run multiple SSL certs on multiple vhosts on one ip. I didn't find a procedure to do it. Do you know how to?

I have several sites running on a local server. Currently, they're all running on port 80. I need one particular site (and ONLY that site) to also accept connections on port 81.
If I browse to the server IP x.x.x.x:80 directly, Apache's behaviour of showing the default site should work as usual. But, if I browse to IP x.x.x.x:81, it should show a different site (the one that should be accepting both :80 and :81). This part is very important.
I was hoping something like the following would work, but it didn't Currently x.x.x.x:81 still shows what I've called myport80defaultsite.com below.
Code:
Listen 80
Listen 81
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName myport80defaultsite.com
[Code].....

I currently have samba setup and connecting. What I am trying to do is have multiple users with access to different directories. For example , let's say there are folders A B C on my Linux machine. I want one guy to see A and C and another guy to see B and C and a third guy to see them all. But I want each user to have access to change delete or execute the files within these directories that they have access to

On other editions of ubuntu server I had no problem saving multiple users and passwords with htdigest but now it seems it is only possible to save one user and password.
Code:
sudo htdigest -c /etc/apache2/passwords directory user
When I add a second username and password for the same directory it overwrites the first.

I have a server that host's several sites, recently I had to create a new server because the old one isn't good enough for me. Ive installed apache2 on the new server and moved all the files from one server to the other. I'm making tests in my local lan so I've edited my computer's hosts file to point to the name of each site to the local ip of the new server:
192.168.1.85 www.mypage.com
192.168.1.85 svn.mypage.com
192.168.1.85 trac.mypage.com
I have all the site definition files in /etc/apache2/sites-available I also have the used a2ensite to enable each page.
Whenever o use my browser to try and access each of the sites I always get the svn.mypage.com page and none of the others.
here is some debug info:
Code:
sudo apache2ctl -S
VirtualHost configuration:
wildcard NameVirtualHosts and _default_ servers:

I'm try to assess the viability of of setting up remote administration on a distant machine. Just for background, the computer I wish to administer is located on a boat in Southern Ireland while I'm in SE England. Sadly, the the boat operator is a far better fisherman than computer user and every now and then some rogue sensor numbers get captured by the boat's computer and these eventually need operator intervention. Anyone who has tried to talk a non PC literate user through correction routines over a dodgy mobile telephone while the said user is trying to operate mouse/keyboard in an Atlantic swell will appreciate the problem.
However, there is a fairly good mobile phone broadband signal available in the area so I was wondering if there was anyway I could set up a point to point connection with the boat over this medium. That would allow me to administer the machine remotely.

I am having some trouble getting a VNC session to a new OpenSuse 11.2 32bit machine I have just installed.Fresh off the DVD, tried under KDE4 and Gnome with the same result (each time a fresh install).In YAST, I enabled remote administration, open the firewall ports, and then try and connect from remote client (in this case I have tried RealVNC from windows, and krdc from a Suse 10.x client and via HTTP) all result in the same blank black screen (http does get an X cursor echoed on the screen)

I can't seem to get Remote Administration (vnc) working for the life of me. I tried the ip4/ip6 fix and every other work around I could find. I simply can't figure things out. I can't say I'm new to Linux but I can say that I am quite new to openSuse and the RPM world in general. My actual error isn't much of an error but that of the vnc window just being a black window that eventually times out.
As of now I access and configure the box vis ssh.I'm using:
openSuse 11.3
Gnome Desktop
Installed from gnome live CD

After installing VirtualBox, add yourself to the Vboxusers group in System -> Administration -> Users and Groups.Then re-boot your computer!Otherwise you will spend hours (like me) wondering why your USB devices are not available in your guest VM.I just did a complete install on a new, larger hard drive and had forgotten this simple fact. Doh!

I'm currently going through,what is essentially a Linux+ course. I don't like any of the exercises in the book, as it's outdated and doesn't really thoroughly teach how to implement a lot of stuff.Is there a program or suite of programs out there where I can create a few VM's with their own IP's, users, files systems, etc. so I can setup up Samba, NFS, NIS, etc.?

I recently was able to network 2 computers at home and I wanted to make my password more secure. When I try to edit my password via System>Administration>Users and Groups, it doesn't workI am able to edit my user settings. When I change my password I enter my old one and it accepts my new one. Problem is when I try to install programs, login and do other things it only accepts my old password. How can I change my password?

Is it possible to map a remote user to a local user in SSH? The object is to avoid using $ssh user@server and instead just do $ssh server instead.

Does anyone know of a simple gui for Apache that I can use to stop and start apache when I need it. I just installed apache on my laptop so I can work and test locally.
I tried webmin but it's to bloated.

Quite often I need someone to transfer a file to my laptop, and it's often different OS to different OS, and setting file-sharing, sshd/ssh, ftpd/ftp, and whatever else not is often not worth it. A USB key is also not always handy or big enough.
But, it's easy to be on the same network, just hard to get service working on top of it in less than 3 minutes if you've never dealt with that person's computer before.
What I was thinking would be the simplest thing would be if I could run apache, and have a very simple web script that simply allows file uploads. Something that would serve a web page that has a "choose file" button which brings up the file dialog, pretty standard I guess. I wouldn't say no to a few more functions on top of that.
Given that, does anyone know of a simple apache modules, or a web server script (language doesn't matter) that would allow for this?

I have an interesting issue with simple scan. When I scan a single page document, the exposure is not very good because there are dark and light areas scattered over the entire document. Of course, one cannot adjust these settings in simple scan as one can with xsane. However, I noticed if I scanned a multiple page document, all pages after the first seemed to be more consistent and the exposure was fairly good (exposure here referring to all the aspects accessable in xsane such as brightness, contrast, gamma, etc.)
So I tried a little experiment. I scanned a single page document as if it were a multiple page document by scanning the document multiple times in the same session.The same thing occurs as if one were scanning a multiple document: the first page is mottled, but all pages after are much better scans. What is happening here?

Is there any good LDAP-Administration tool ?
I need to setup test accounts and groups.
For that I can test a LDAP-to-DataBase synchronization tool.
Anything with which I can quickly add users /Groups in the directory structure.
I don't care which LDAP-server, as long as it is stable enough to run for 10 minutes.

I want to make a FTP server with web frontend for administering it, eg creating users, groups, setting which directories users can access and so on.I found some web frontends for proFTPd, like those URL... , bus all of them seems to be very old and doesn't work nicely. I tried ProFTP Administrator and it won't work.Do you know some solutions to manage ftp server users, groups, permissions over web? Or by some frontend program.
